GREAT FLIGHT TRACKER

I was introduced to flight tracker in 2016 and have used it ever since it’s an amazing flight tracker and would recommend it. It is very accurate and shows the needed details that you want to stay abreast of thank you.

Good.

Works great for tracking flights and seeing what’s overhead. My one complaint is that it takes 3 taps to see the aircraft model, I wish I could see it on the small pop when I tap a plane.
